Cookie Policy
Last updated: March 27, 2026
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently and to provide information to site owners. Absterco Pay uses cookies and similar technologies on the dashboard and hosted payment pages.
2. Cookies We Use
Strictly Necessary
These cookies are essential for the dashboard to function. They manage authentication sessions, CSRF protection, and security tokens. You cannot opt out of these.
Functional
These remember your preferences such as language, timezone, and display settings to provide a personalised experience.
Analytics
We may use analytics cookies to understand how the dashboard is used so we can improve it. These are anonymised and never tied to individual transaction data.
3. Mastercard Hosted Session
When a cardholder enters payment details on a hosted payment page, Mastercard's JavaScript SDK may set its own functional cookies to manage the secure session. These are governed by Mastercard's privacy practices and are necessary for PCI-compliant card tokenisation.
4. Managing Cookies
Most browsers allow you to refuse or delete cookies through their settings. Disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from logging in to the dashboard. Disabling analytics cookies will not affect platform functionality.
5. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy periodically. The "Last updated" date at the top will reflect any changes. Continued use of the platform constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
